Lang Shih-Ning: Brocade of Spring
This is a fine example which indicates well the special features of Lang Shih-ning's brilliant use of color. The T'ai-hu rock, cherished for its extraordinary form, and other elements displaying the flavor of Chinese ink painting are added to the theme of golden pheasants and flowers executed in utmost realism based on Western-style painting.
